			This package provides a pair_style kim command which is a wrapper on
			the Knowledge Base for Interatomic Models (KIM) repository of
			interatomic potentials, so that they can be used by LAMMPS scripts.

			Information about the KIM project can be found at https://openkim.org.
			It's PIs are Ellad Tadmor and Ryan Elliott (U Minn).

			Using this package requires the KIM library and its models
			(interatomic potentials) to be downloaded and installed on your
			system. The library can be downloaded and built in lib/kim or
			elsewhere on your system, which must be done before bulding LAMMPS
			with this package. Details of the download, build, and install
			process for KIM are given in the lib/kim/README file, and scripts will
			soon be provided to help automate the process. Also see the LAMMPS
			manual for general information on building LAMMPS with external
			libraries. The settings in the Makefile.lammps file in lib/kim must
			be correct for LAMMPS to build correctly with this package installed.

			Once you have successfully built LAMMPS with this package and the KIM
			library you can test it using an input file from the examples dir:

			./lmp_serial < lammps/examples/kim/in.kim.lj

			This pair_style was written by Valeriu Smirichinski and Ryan
			S. Elliott (U Minn).
